IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari: 'We've eliminated 200 Hezbollah terrorists'
"We are working to stop Hezbollah's supply of ammunition from Iran," he continued. "Wherever Hezbollah is - we will act, anywhere in the Middle East."
The Israeli military has killed 200 Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon, IDF spokesman Rear-Admiral Daniel Hagari stated during a Saturday evening press briefing.
"Instead of one division, we deployed three divisions along the border, with tens of thousands of soldiers," Hagari said. "We suppress attacks on the borderline by terrorists who have tried to infiltrate Israel. We've attacked more than 150 terrorist squads and eliminated more than 200 terrorists and commanders. Since the beginning of the war, we have attacked more than 3,400 targets in Lebanon.
"We are working to stop Hezbollah's supply of ammunition from Iran," he continued. "Wherever Hezbollah is - we will act, anywhere in the Middle East."
IDF then attacked Hezbollah military targets
Shortly after Hagari's statements, the IDF reported that Israeli fighter jets attacked a military structure belonging to Hezbollah in southern Lebanon in the Taybeh region.
Also, during the previous few hours, a number of launches were reportedly identified as having crossed from Lebanese territory toward the areas of Mount Dov, Even Menachem, and Yir'on. There were no casualties, and Israeli forces attacked the sources of the shooting.
Earlier that day, Israeli fighter jets struck several targets in southern Lebanon, successfully destroying Hezbollah infrastructure.
During the operation, the IDF struck two military outposts near the towns of Marwahin and Ayta ash Shab.
